d/IndianTeenagers • Follow post Save Hide Report “helping with homework” — textbook stayed shut for 2 hours Told my mother I was heading over to help a friend with homework. Genuine plan on paper, a real subject even picked out beforehand as the supposed focus of the session. What actually happened: two hours of talking about a show, fully absorbed, one single textbook kept open on the table purely for appearances. A prop more than a study tool, positioned strategically in case anyone walked in. The textbook never actually got touched. Not one page turned, not one concept discussed. The appearances, I firmly believe, were fully and... 1 0 Share
d/IndianTeenagers • Follow post Save Hide Report Group used “no cap” ironically so much, we lost the real use Somewhere along the way, my friend group started using "no cap" purely ironically, applied to obviously fake or exaggerated statements as a bit. Over time, that became the default mode entirely, layered so deep that sincerity got buried underneath it. Now, even when someone genuinely means something and adds "no cap" for actual emphasis, it lands as a joke anyway. Nobody can tell the difference anymore, ironic or real, because the phrase has been fully hollowed out by overuse. This has caused at least three minor miscommunications this month alone.... 1 0 Share
d/IndianTeenagers • Follow post Save Hide Report New corridor cctv changed nothing, except a week of waving The school installed new CCTV cameras in the corridor with what felt like real seriousness attached to the announcement. Expectation: behavior would shift, corridors would get quieter, some noticeable change would follow. What actually changed: absolutely nothing, except that for the first week, literally everyone dramatically waved at the cameras as a joke every time they walked past, turning surveillance into a running bit. The waving has since stopped, faded out naturally after the novelty wore off. The cameras remain up there, mostly unnoticed now, just a permanent, quiet background... 1 0 Share
d/IndianTeenagers • Follow post Save Hide Report Blamed “internet down” for a late submission. it wasn’t. The assignment was late, and instead of just admitting I'd lost track of time, I told my teacher the internet was down. Simple, unverifiable, classic excuse. Meanwhile my entire family was actively using that exact same internet connection for other things the whole time. Streaming, calls, everything running perfectly fine, completely undermining my own story in real time in the next room. She didn't ask for further proof. I did not offer any. The internet, notably, was fine the entire time, and the only thing actually down was my time... 1 0 Share
d/IndianTeenagers • Follow post Save Hide Report Sub said “continue whatever,” class heard “total chaos” The substitute walked in, said "just continue whatever you were doing," and the entire class instantly decoded this as unofficial permission for complete and total chaos. No further instructions were needed after that single sentence. What followed was roughly forty minutes of barely controlled noise. Conversations happening simultaneously in every corner, someone's phone playing music quietly, general anarchy dressed up as "continuing whatever." She never corrected course after that first statement, just sort of let it run. We consider this, genuinely, one of the better substitute periods of the entire... 1 0 Share
